This past weekend I had the great privilege of spending some time with my new friends Ashley and Anders. These two lovebirds - newly engaged - were in town visiting from California. Anders grew up around Boston, and they wanted to chance to document this special place and their time here. I say this all the time, but it is the best gift to get to meet two folks and get the challenge of documenting their love and seeing them in their element. So excited for what the future will have in store for these two - enjoy some photos from our afternoon in Boston:

Oh how I love getting to hang out and document families. Now that I've got a little one of my own - it just adds all the more joy to see others with their little kiddos. The Calderons are a special bunch, as I got to know them through photographing their wedding a couple years back, AND they were married around the time I was, AND their first child, Ben, is the same age as Madeleine. Add to that Ramon is tackling working and grad school at the moment, AND they are just wonderful people to be around. You couldn't have dreamt up a better photo shoot. Plus they chose an amazing place to take their photos. So please, enjoy.

There is no better way to describe Beth & Dave's wedding than the word joyful. Each wedding I photograph is a particular honor, but this one had such a special aurora to it that was so clear every time Beth and Dave were together. The love they have for each other just radiated. It was truly a beautiful thing to see. On top of all that, they had a beautiful day, a killer venue at the Charles River Museum of Industry and Innovation, and such a great group of folks around them. Enjoy some photos of the day below.

Thank you again Beth and Dave! It was such a pleasure to be there to document your wedding day.

Wow. Just wow. What an amazing day to get to photograph. Jenn & Daniel built the most perfect day, not because they were given ideal weather, or had a stunning venue in Smolak Farms, or delicious food, or gorgeous details, but in the way they had built such an amazing community of people that made the celebration of their wedding just... wow. These two have just such an amazing love and joy and it was such an honor for me to get to document it. This is one of my largest posts EVER, because I had such a hard time narrowing down the photos. I hope you enjoy the visual story of the day. Congrats Jenn & Daniel! #PaiktotheFuture

What do I even begin to say about these two? Andrew has quickly become one of my closest friends and is one of the most honorable, thoughtful and caring people I know - I don't know what I would have done the past year without his friendship. Larissa is one of those magnetic people full of so much kindness and warmth that its so easy to be around her. Together they are this fantastic duo of love and strength and character and I just cannot wait for their wedding this summer. We had so much fun heading out into Boston on an early January morning. Enjoy some photos of these two:
